Holckenhavn Castle

Holckenhavn Castle, Renaissance manor house in Nyborg Municipality, Denmark.

Holckenhavn Castle is a manor house with white-painted walls, symmetrical wings, and corner towers overlooking deep water-filled moats. The structure draws water from surrounding streams to maintain these moats, creating a defensive boundary around the property.

The manor was built in 1634 and passed through several noble families before the Holck family took permanent residence in 1672. It has remained with that family ever since, shaping the region's history.

The chapel serves as a space for religious gatherings, reflecting how the inhabitants have maintained spiritual traditions over centuries. Visitors can observe the Renaissance craftsmanship that shaped daily life for generations within these walls.

The Knights Hall accommodates up to 160 guests and features modern meeting facilities. Access to the property is primarily arranged for events and gatherings rather than casual daily visits.

The current owners represent the 14th generation of the Holck family and organize seasonal wine dinners that showcase traditional Danish hospitality. These gatherings demonstrate how the family has maintained cultural customs across generations.
